When Mayor Oz heard Hannah tell him that he was going to gather people to carry out the anti-Ethan operation, he vaguely didn't think it would succeed. Although he didn't want to get too involved, after all, Hannah was half of his daughter who he had grown up with. , still sent a drone to help.
But he just didn't expect the result to be so tragic. When the drone arrived and saw so many people dead, he was surprised and blamed himself...
"Oh...my god!...I'm late!"
Mayor Oz put away his usual gray comedy on the radio and looked at the corpses on the ground in the heavy rain with a deep frown, but he immediately brought his attention back to the critical moment when Ethan wanted to kill Allen.
"Ethan is trying to kill that kid! I have to at least save him..."
Since he wanted to save people, Mayor Oz suppressed the shock and reluctance in his heart and talked to Ethan through the construction drone:
"...Captain, is that enough? You have killed so many people and you have not even spared a young man?"
Ethan wiped his bayonet, sneered and responded to the drone:
"Mayor, mayor... I knew this matter was related to you. I was just wondering how it happened that the construction drones let in a few zombies to patch up the wall... I was so anxious. Kill me?"
Mayor Oz thought about his very cautious response:
"First of all, I didn’t participate in this action, and I didn’t really want to pull you down. After all, after Hank became like that, thanks to you, the pirate city next to us didn’t dare to mess with us. I also want to say thank you. . However, these young people obviously can't bear your various "behaviors" over the years. Since you lead the guard instead of Hank, you shouldn't be so cruel. The real enemy is the zombies outside, not these young people, OK? Please !」 Mayor Oz got a little angry by the end, but tried to stay calm.
"Oh? I'm just teaching these young people that the strong is king, and if you don't give in, you will die. Otherwise, what can you do to me??"
Ethan didn't care about Mayor Oz, he said as he prepared to catch Allen again.
At this time, Mayor Oz suddenly said coldly:
"I can't stop you, but someone can."
As soon as he finished speaking, a drone that was completely different from other construction drones approached from the sky, with "Doomsday News Network" written prominently on the fuselage.
Mayor Oz said:
"Do you think it's okay to broadcast this incident to all of North America and let everyone know about your evil deeds?"
Ethan scoffed and continued to respond:
"Anyway, these are troubled times... Is there anything wrong with having people like me?...Hmph!"
Ozzy suddenly said...
"It doesn't even matter if it alarms Washington City...?"
Hearing the three keywords "Washington City", Ethan finally stopped and glared at the drone.
This city of Washington is the only old bureaucratic capital in North America that still has an army and various short, medium and long missiles. Even nuclear bombs are still under their control. In the ten years when zombies were rampant, they mercilessly launched many nuclear bombs to destroy cities that had lost their value, and Charlotte was the latest one to be destroyed.
Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.
Ethan is not stupid. He knows that even if he is very strong, he cannot fight against Washington. Zhu pretends to sigh cheerfully and wipes the blood from his hands with the rain...
"Just because the mayor has put so much effort into the battle, I won't continue playing!"
He looked at Allen, who was paralyzed on the ground and was unconscious, and said:
"Kid, I finally know that "he" is hiding with you, just wait for me to find you!"
The heavy rain continued to fall, and after speaking, Ethan simply walked back to the car he drove and left calmly.
Only the scene in front of the No. 14 Viaduct was left, covered with corpses and bloody water washed away in the heavy rain. Mayor Oz confirmed that Ethan had left and immediately used a drone to rescue Alan and the unconscious Hannah.
Alan, who was collapsed on the ground, saw the drone coming towards him in the haze, and the light was getting closer and closer...
Then finally passed out...
This anti-Ethan operation ended in complete failure in heavy rain.
After an unknown amount of time, Allen finally woke up leisurely. He found himself lying on a bed with an intravenous drip on his hand. Looking around, it seemed to be a small medical room...
"Kid, are you finally awake?..."
Allen turned around and saw Mayor Oz walking in from the door, carrying a tray of medicine.
"Mayor?....Where am I...?"
The city of Oz remained relaxed and humorous and said:
"Here is my steelDomeThe simple medical room in the hospital...Boy, you are really lucky! You actually dare to face that bad guy alone. I really admire you. No wonder Hannah despises my son! Let me tell you..."
Allen suddenly interrupted the gushing Mayor Oz, opened his eyes wide and said:
"...Wait...where is Hannah? Where are the others? Mayor, have you rescued the others?!"
Allen nervously grabbed the mayor's sleeve, hoping to hear good news from the mayor.
Mayor Oz sighed...
Not knowing what Mayor Oz said, Allen hurriedly dragged his injured body to the square in front of the central generator of the steel building.
Allen's mind was filled with thoughts about what the mayor had just said...
"All I know is that...only you and Hanna are still alive at the scene, and the rest...none survive. Go to the square, and you will know...Hanna is there too."
Finally, Allen looked in the direction of the square from the far side. Dozens of bodies were packed in body bags and lined up all over the square. He also saw Hannah kneeling in front of the body, her eyes red from crying and expressionless. .
Allen walked slowly towards the square and walked slowly next to Hannah. Looking at the body bag at the front, it reads "
"Heather, Alexander, Bert, David"
Allen felt very sad. The last pictures of their lives appeared in his mind, and he looked at their bodies with great sadness.
Although he didn't have much time to get to know these partners, Allen felt that these team leaders were very good people, especially David. When the family first arrived, it was David who helped him find a place to live and introduced the guards. He was very grateful to the team, but now he was lying there coldly...
"... I'm sorry... I didn't think carefully... I hurt you... I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
Hannah kept repeating these words with red eyes and dull eyes, which made Allen couldn't help but hug her, hoping to give her some comfort.
Finally, Claire, who was not at the scene and thus escaped the disaster, came back. She hugged Hannah and cried bitterly, so that Hannah finally couldn't help but burst into tears.
Unexpectedly, the anti-Ethan operation that had been planned for so long failed so miserably in the end. Hannah blamed herself so much that she couldn't help herself. She could only shed tears and cry wildly...
At night, it still rained.
Allen volunteered to be a driver because of his worries, driving Hannah's car to take Hannah home who was in an unstable mood.
Hannah stared at the rain outside the car window in silence all the way. Although she didn't know what she was thinking, every drop of rain made her feel like a knife. It must be difficult for her to accept her four friends Heather, Alexander, and Uncle. Te, David and dozens of anti-Ethan Guard members were all gone...
The car finally arrived at the door of Hannah's house, which was a very ordinary house.
Hannah got out of the car without saying a word. When Alan saw this, he quickly got out of the car and held an umbrella for her.
"Hey...are you okay?"
Hannah didn't respond at all to Allen's concern. She just said coldly without looking back:
"It's time for you to go back!."
Hannah walked to the door of her house in the rain, which made Alan even more worried and followed her.
When Hannah saw Allen, she followed him without giving up. She turned around and spoke again with a heavy tone on her face with messy hair.
"I said you should go back!!"
Allen knew that tonight was very uncomfortable, but he still hoped that Hannah could cheer up. He deliberately pretended to be a stalker, widened his eyes and said, "I don't want it!", "I know you haven't eaten anything all day long, I want to see you go home and have a good meal before leaving!"
Hannah looked directly at Allen and wanted to drive him away, but before she could say anything, there were sounds of glass breaking from the house.
Regardless of Allen's reluctance to leave, Hannah quickly opened the door and followed the direction of the sound.
She came to the kitchen and saw a scene in front of her that made her dumbfounded...
Pots and pans were scattered on the floor, and there were several empty wine bottles on the dining table. My father, Commander Hank, was so drunk that he was lame. After rummaging through the boxes and cabinets, he finally found half a bottle of wine and drank it drunkenly...
Allen followed behind and saw this surprising scene. He finally understood why Hannah always seemed like she didn't want to get close to others, because she was afraid of being pointed out by others and afraid of being known... It turned out that her father who was originally a heroic commander turned into this...
At this time, Hannah walked slowly to Hank without saying a word, and without any warning, she slapped the bottle away with her palm. The bottle smashed to the ground, just like her patience with her father. Come. ..
Hannah's long-suppressed dissatisfaction and grievances can no longer bear it at this moment and will completely explode...
